Synopsis

There is perhaps no joint in the human body as complex, fascinating, or baffling as the shoulder. It can leave clinicians scratching their heads, wondering why a problem they have solved many times before is so stubborn. And shoulder injuries can certainly be stubborn! That's why, in every case, prevention is so much better than cure. Rarely is a pain that has surfaced a simple matter of applying some ice - it is more likely to be the tip of an iceberg… This is a groundbreaking book in more ways than one. I was surprised to discover so many shoulder injuries are due not only to bad habits of technique, but to the unbalanced upper-body workouts many athletes undertake in the mistaken belief they are doing themselves good. For these poor souls, injury and pain lie just around the corner. Prepared by the combined experts of Peak Performance and Sports Injury Bulletin, it looks at every aspect of shoulder care and injury prevention: Shoulder overview: the five main ingredients for keeping shoulders injury-free Rotator-cuff protection: a specialist in treating sports injuries explains how overhead athletes can prevent chronic shoulder pain Preventing injuries: a sports fitness expert suggests further exercises to help you avoid shoulder pain A surgical view: an orthopaedic surgeon explains why shoulders go wrong and what can be done to repair them Case study: how a keen club golfer was cured of a nagging shoulder pain Technical review: two surgeons discuss the diagnosis and treatment of acromioclavicular injuries in athletes Prehab guide: an assessment of the latest research into shoulder problems and with practical advice on achieving balanced upper-body development

Revue de presse

Shoulder Injuries - prevention & treatment is a must-have for your library --Robert Whynot, Canadian Sports Massage Therapy Association

Extremely useful! I've not been able to use Shoulder Injuries - prevention & treatment as much as I would have liked because I made the mistake of lending it to one of the rugby players at the club and it is now making its way around the team. Keep up the good work! --Charmaine Johns, Physio
